TextLinkAds experiences

Does anyone sell text links through TLA? (TextLinkAds | The Leader in Text Link Search Engine Optimization)
I've signed up a few days ago and no one has bought an ad spot yet.
My results with Adsense ads are satisfying on the other hand.

I don't really fancy this text link ads, since they are (usually) preventing normal reading pace. I tried to apply text link ads on my website about personal development and enjoying life (Unlock Your Potentials, Make Good Use of Your Talents and Enjoy Life - Personal Development, Business, Health, Fitness, Tech, Style, Vehicles, Luxury) but got many complaints, although these links do provide some revenue. It's up to you, but I would test link ads for some time and then decide if keeping them would be a good idea.

Thanks for sharing your experience with TLA.
I just found out that my site wasn't in their marketplace yet. So...

I just got my lucid dreaming site added to the TLA marketplace a few days ago and nothing yet... They said they'd sell ad space on my homepage at $25/month. I wasn't blown away by that amount but they don't seem to specify placement so I guess I can put it as far down the page as I like.

A word of caution installing their ad code - I followed their PHP installation instructions to the letter and it f**ked up my whole site for 48 hours! Any time someone clicked on a link, it told the user to download the page instead of viewing it in their browser. MAJOR complications... even after I took out all their code my site took 2 days to return to normal. I told tech support but they just said "hmm that's weird... try again?"
